Toilet Training

Nothing says "I'm a big kid, now!" like learning to use the toilet. Parents are happy to leave behind the time and money consumed changing diapers while their little one moves on to a more independent stage in her life. In this Children's Channel video podcast, Geoffrey Putt, PsyD, director of parenting and family support services at Akron Children's Hospital, discusses the importance of toilet training to a child's development, as well as some strategies to help ensure a smooth transition.
